TV Updates Blair Waldorf is Making History When I saw pictures of Leighton Meester at the Fox Upfront I actually shouted out, by myself, in my office the other day – YES! Because I miss her.

Movie Reviews and Previews NuGhostbusters is the most disliked movie ever A new trailer for Ghostbusters was released yesterday. This one gives us more of the plot—still science dorks in New York bustin’ ghosts—and sets up the purpose of Chris Hemsworth’s character. Not every joke works, like the Leslie Jones stage diving bit, but then that demon joke By Sarah • May 19, 2016 11:33 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Krysten’s strappy shoes I generally don’t like strappy shoes like this. Crissy-crossy complicated laces – it’s become very… Kardashian. I especially don’t like the shade of red/orange that Krysten Ritter wore with this black cut-out dress. They’re better from the day before in a really pretty off-centre-chested starburst cocktail By Lainey • May 19, 2016 11:13 am
Drama Who owns the “Cannes eye”? Kristen Stewart and her romantic flameout Soko have both been in Cannes. So far there hasn’t been any overt drama. No screaming, no slapping. But that might be old-school drama. New school drama happens on social media. And this is what it looks like: Kristen showed up to the By Lainey • May 19, 2016 10:43 am
Douchebags Blake Lively’s Oakland Booty Blake Lively is the epitome of a Becky. She’s white, tall, blonde and has long straight hair. When you listen to Sir Mix-A-lot’s Baby Got Back and you hear the line, “Oh my god, Becky, look at her butt,” Blake Lively is pretty much who you picture in By Kathleen • May 19, 2016 10:05 am

Mariah Carey Intro for May 18, 2016 Dear Gossips, Big sorry. Have to stay dark today, still not feeling great. The timing is sh-t and I apologise for falling behind on the gossip because, as we say here, it's never *just* gossip. Hoping to be re-balanced by tomorrow. Sorry again for the inconvenience. Yours in By Lainey • May 18, 2016 10:43 am
Style Kristen Stewart’s happy Cannes I wrote yesterday that Kristen Stewart seems like she’s having so much fun in Cannes. They seem to love her in France. And she’s loving them back. Look at her today at the photo call for Personal Shopper. She’s playing for the cameras. Not pouting…but playing! By Lainey • May 17, 2016 02:32 pm

Today Lainey and I smoke some weed in honour of one of our advice questions, and while I try to keep my shit above board, I may have unknowingly been a wee bit high (I didn't think it worked at the time).

Music Where is Justin Timberlake’s Sexy? Last week, Lainey wrote about how Justin Timberlake is trolling for an Oscar with his new song Can’t Stop The Feeling.

Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Kate Hudson in silver-white Silvery? White? In some light it looks lightly purple. What’s amazing to me is that it goes all the way up to the neck and there’s barely a side cut-out. It’s a refreshing style change for her, isn’t it? By Lainey • May 17, 2016 12:10 pm
Douchebags Adrien Brody has no time for “fodder” Adrien Brody is surprisingly not in Cannes (yet) getting off a yacht in a douche-brown leather suit. Nor is he at an art show turning you on with his awesome style. Last night Adrien was in New York at the premiere of Manhattan Night and to promote the film he By Lainey • May 17, 2016 11:57 am

Siblings Intro for May 17, 2016 Dear Gossips, The May issue of Vanity Fair was dedicated to sisters – I wrote about it here in reference and comparison to Jacqueline Kennedy and Lee Radziwill and Beyoncé and Solange Knowles.

Quiveration Idris Elba, gunslinger New photos of Idris Elba in South Africa shooting The Dark Tower. People seem to be pretty excited to see him in costume as the gunslinger.
